Nickel 722 per GE B50T73
GE B50T73 is a specification issued by General Electric Aviation for Nickel Alloy 722, also known as Inconel 722, which is used for critical applications in the aerospace industry. It ensures components used in extreme environments in turbine and jet engines possess strong mechanical properties, temperature stability, and corrosion resistance.
Overview of GE B50T73
Nickel 722 is a nickel and chromium alloy that is further enriched with titanium and aluminum. The material can be subjected to precipitation hardening through the process of heat treatment, enabling the material to display excellent stability up to 1300 °F or 704 °C. The material’s excellent oxidation and chemical corrosion resistance allows it to be used in industries other than the aviation sector alone.
APPLICATIONS OF NICKEL 722
NICKEL 722 is used for gas turbine structural components, such as turbine section frames. The alloy is useful where oxidation resistance and high temperature strength are of major importance.
